Summer Mini Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Summer Mini catalogue Blog Hop, brought to you by the fabulous stampers at Stampin' Addicts! I am stop # 8 of this fantastic tour, where you will be sure to find loads of inspiration using NEW product from the Summer Mini catalogue! You will begin at one blog, and "hop" to the next blog until you completed a 25 post circuit. You probably came to me from Joyce's blog, stampincentral, where she created samples using the Mostly Vintage stencil.
I am showcasing the cool new alphabet set called Rough Type, found on page 28.
I hope you are inspired!

I love this card! I especially like the shredded up, torn ribbon! I used Extreme Elements and Extreme Skateboard as well as the Rough Type alphabet.

The card above also uses the mini vintage tags on page 15, and the stamp set Elements of Style on page 12. I also used the Big Shot lattice die and cut it in half.

The motorcycle card was inspired by a card I saw on someone's blog, but I can't remember whose. As soon as I find it, I'll link it here to give credit to the original designer.

So you're next stop will be Dawnmarie at DM Dezigns where she is doing great things with the Presto Patterns DSP! Enjoy the rest of the tour!

Blog Hop Featuring Classy and Fabulous!

Welcome to the Retiring List Blog Hop! This Blog Hop is brought to you by the wonderful and creative people at Stampin' Addicts! I am stop #2. You probably came to me from stop #1 Mary's blog, or perhaps from stop #3 Melissa's blog.
I am featuring one of my favourite sets, Classy and Fabulous. This is such a darling set, with one of the best quotes of all time: "A girl should be two things...classy and fabulous".
My first project is a card book. This is the outside, and inside it can hold four cards with envelopes.



This next project is just a basic card, using the sentiment I quoted earlier. The designer paper is Night and Day from the Holiday mini.
Remember, This set is on the dormant list and will no longer be available after January 5th!




Thanks for stopping by!
Now you can hop to #3, Melissa...or #1 Mary.

Up, Up and Away!

I LOVE these Sweet Center treat cups! They are absolutely so fun to work with. I think this card would be perfect for a little kid's birthday. I used card stock colours that matched the M&M colours. I used my scallop circle punch to create the clouds.
Also, just a reminder that the Stampin' Addicts blog hop starts on Saturday! We will be showcasing projects made with product from the new Holiday mini catalogue (like these treat cups and Sweet Centers stamp set)! Lots of great ideas to share.


Thanks for stopping by...Have a stampy day!

Pony Party

The Pony Party set is perfect for little girls! Would be great to use for party invites and treat bags. I especially like adding glitter to the mane and tail. These are 2cards I've created with this set. Thanks for stopping by!


Also, Stampin' Addicts is hosting another Blog Hop beginning on Saturday August 29 until Monday August 31. Be sure to check it out!

Bon Voyage Blog Hop...stop#5

Welcome to the Bon Voyage Blog Hop, Port of Call #5 brought to you by Stampin' Addicts. I am showing projects made with the stamp set Holiday Trinkets. You have either joined me from stop #4 Kathy's blog or stop #6 Connie's blog...either way you go, you will hop from blog to blog and make a full circle!

This first project uses Real Red, Pretty in Pink and Whisper White as the colours. I stamped the images in Versamark and embossed them in silver and white for a very modern twist! I also used the set Many Merry Messages for the sentiment.



I went a little more traditional with this card. Night of Navy, Real Red, So Saffron, Glorious Green and Whisper White. The sentiment is from the french version of Many Merry Messages, called Nombreux Joyeaux Messages.


Finally, I created 3x3 cards that would make great gift tags. I used the soon to be retiring In Colours: Kiwi Kiss, Baja Breeze and Riding Hood Red. I also added In Colour striped grosgrain ribbon and embellished with buttons from the Button Bouquet collection.
